Black fabric that has faded will sometimes take on a green tone, depending on the dyes used on it. here's the highest res I could fine online, can see the green compared to the brown of the strap https://i.imgur.com/ewLDUzk.png Ok, I definitely see it better now, but the shirt and pants also have a...

Indiana Jon

I kinda see the green you guys are seeing, but I think the odd color tones of his shirt may be bleeding into the belt and tricking the eyes. I doubt they would change the color of the web belt and try to match all the other colors. There's a chance we're overanalyzing this, but ... we are in the rig...

Indiana Jon

Sure! If anyone challenges it, you could just call it the ToD cockpit variant.

Indiana Jon

Great work, as always, Croft.

I really like the photos with the fog in the distance. With how accurate the jacket is now, they look like behind the scenes photos from the aqueduct sequence in DoD. Nice work.

According to the IMDFB (https://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title=I ... Army_Model), Webley WG Army Model is correct for LC.

That's what I thought. Thanks.

As so which is most SA to LC, I don't have the expertise nor eye to know. To my knowledge the 1889 is the correct gun, not the 1890 that is also listed.

I'm no expert either, but I agree the 1889 seems more familiar.

Indiana Jon

Voted for Webley Green, Colt New Service and Bapty Same. Although I searched "Webley" and noticed there's a "Webley Army WG" and a "Webley WG". Is the grip color the only difference? The "Army WG" is LC accurate, correct? I voted for both, but I'm curious.

Indiana Jon

Looks great, Adam! Any updates on the ETA?

Indiana Jon

Yeah, I think that's just a result of the way it was flattened in storage.

Indiana Jon

Well done, Bear. Ever considered doing a brass bag strap buckle? You could complete your All Brass Indy.

Indiana Jon

Thank you, gentlemen.

Sometimes patience pays off.

Indiana Jon

An old eBay saved search paid off last week. I scored these WWI Colmont binoculars for a relatively low price considering their condition. All four leather pieces are intact, and while the leather has shrunk enough to begin pulling at the seams, the bond is still tight. There is some dust behind the...

Indiana Jon

Awesome! Really nice touch.

Indiana Jon

Both mine are vintage brass buckles. You can find them fairly cheap online, and usually they come ready with a nice patina. I haven't done any modifications on either of mine, and they play the part perfectly. I agree the TOD buckle does look more grey in some shots. I don't love the idea that they ...

Indiana Jon

Really excited for this. I swapped out the buttons on your Classic to make my Temple shirt last year (using your olive buttons), so now I'll be able to modify that one for the bridge look and have two Temple shirts! (I'll be gentle with it. Don't be offended. :CR: ) :-k I will, however, be without a...

Indiana Jon

Croft,

Your scarf looks accurate to me. Mine is way too tan. I guess I'll just keep my eyes on the bay.

Any manufacturer tags on your scarf that might assist me in my quest?

Indiana Jon

Lookin' good, Croft!

I may have lost the thread on this, so forgive me if you're repeating yourself, but where did you find that scarf? That's the piece I'm having the hardest time finding, and yours looks darn close to accurate.

Indiana Jon

Looks like your patience paid off. Very cool!

Indiana Jon

I think you'll find a lot of us are outdoor types and lean toward the utilitarian when it comes to our daily wardrobe. It's like the gearhead version of the chick/egg question; Am I like this because of Indy, or do I like Indy because I was born this way? Personally, I'm not a fan of cargo pants, bu...

Indiana Jon

As a proud owner of MIJ's TOD leather goods, I can vouch for their quality. MIJ makes one of the most screen accurate TOD bag straps I've seen. It is rough on the underside, but I'd be willing to bet that the screen-used strap was too. What you're seeing in most of those photos is wet leather. If I ...

Indiana Jon

Lookin' good! Congrats!

Indiana Jon

Also, the MKVI used in the stunt had three very visible vents on the bottom, whereas this bag clearly has only two. They also conveniently don't show a photo of the front, which had a dark green patch for the stones to "burn" through. At best, this is misleading. At worst, it's a scam. Som...

Indiana Jon

Happy New Year! Congrats on your new acquisition! Looks good.

Did you ask Thomas for a specific bash? Looks like it might be a ToD?

Indiana Jon

They should definitely not be tight. Keep in mind that we would not punish ourselves with "skinny jeans" for another 75 years or so. As others have said, if you get a military hem on those and wear them at your actual waist, I think they'll be spot on. You want the roomy fit. The pants can...

Indiana Jon

Very excited about this. KDG has become my standard for Indy shirts and pants. I'll be getting one of these for sure.

Indiana Jon

Nice work, baddates! Looks great.

Indiana Jon

Depends on your departure date and if you have time to break them in. I would absolutely NOT recommend bringing new Wested boots on a hiking trip. I own them and now that they're broken in they are somewhat comfortable, but the break-in period was just south of agony. It took about a mile per day fo...

Indiana Jon

Gotta say ... I've always dug Belloq's style. :CR: Obviously, I prefer Indy's aesthetic. But I've always assumed Belloq's costume design was an intentional effort to contrast him against Indy (shadowy reflection, etc.). In the jungle, he wears what you would expect from an upper class intellectual e...

Indiana Jon

It would have to be a very specific set of circumstances for an O-ring to be bent enough to look like a D-ring. I think it's more likely that they had one bag with D-rings like the one Makeitjones posted above. I have to respectfully disagree with Jeff on this one. I think we're seeing more than a ...

Welcome to the club! Congrats on your new acquisition. It fits you well.

Indiana Jon

Well, I'll be ...

I just checked all three scenes you mentioned, and they certainly look like D-Rings. Good catch! I wonder if that was just one of the bags they used, or all of them.

Indiana Jon

As far as shape and size are concerned, no changes detected, it withstood the water amazingly well. It is the beaver felt version though, at the time I ordered it, it was marked as having the highest weather resistance of all the models. The older rabbit Harrison I have does not stand up to rain so...

It's a great nasty weather hat!

Just look at that beautiful warping. As if you just climbed out the water while evading angry Hovitos.

Having never put my AdVintage through this kind of a challenge, I'm curious how it looks once dry. Good as new?

Indiana Jon

Hello all! I'm new to posting here, but I have been an Indy fan and gear head for many years. I wanted to share a photo of a fairly new HJ acquisition I ordered in 2023, from the brilliant and talented folks at Herbert Johnson: my Destiny Poet - Nutmeg Rabbit (with Sable Brown Ribbon and Branded Ol...

Indiana Jon

Welcome to the club, Rob!

Jacket looks great. Wear it in good health.

Indiana Jon

Terrific job as always, Holt. We definitely share an opinion of how gear should be done. I haven't tackled LC yet, but I will definitely refer to your work when the time comes.

"Well done, boy!"

Indiana Jon

I own a WPG and a KDG "Classic". I like them both. The WPG feels like the right thickness, but the color is on the gray side (closer to LC than Raiders, in my opinion). The KDG is a great fit for a slim build, and edges more towards brown/yellow tones. Perfect for ToD shirt if you swap out...

Indiana Jon

This is awesome! Congrats!

Indiana Jon

I think you've shared these before, but I gotta say again: dang...they are nice shots, Indiana Jon. The whip still is spectacular! :TOH: Cheers, Bear Thanks, bud! Yeah, they're old pics. I was in a hurry and they were the only shots I had available since Imgur lost all my previously resized pics. B...

Indiana Jon

I have the 2019 Lightweight WPG pants. They're decent. Some pilling after a little wear and a few gentle washes. They do take on a pinkish hue in direct sunlight, which isn't quite accurate for Raiders. https://i.imgur.com/xQIfqfi.jpg https://i.imgur.com/JSkEOJj.jpg I've since upgraded to Karolian D...

Indiana Jon

Update: the pants are now not available on the Karolin dry goods etsy, and the website is now empty? Also the pants are gone from Karolin dry goods etsy now? What are my chances of getting an exchange/refudn now? I lost a few more pounds and now the pants -almost- fit me, and i think staying on the...

Indiana Jon

Yes, yes, I think I was born with the whip-obsession-bug! :rolling: whips and swords, a lifelong 'interest' for me. By the way, I wish you a belated Happy Birthday, my friend! :TOH: Cheers, Bear :lol: Hey, we all have our sub-obsessions/specialties. It's one of the interesting things about this hob...

Indiana Jon

Ah, so you've always been this way.

Always cool to see a gearhead's early work. Thanks for sharing!

Indiana Jon

Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to the announcement. As long as they can maintain the quality and affordability (and I see no reason to think they won't), they've got my business.

Indiana Jon

I really like the backpack patches as well.

Thanks, bud! I got the patches on Etsy. Can't remember the seller.

Finally took my Fed IV on a decent adventure. It's been on quite a few day trips/hikes over the last 10 months, but last week I went on my annual camping trip at Hickory Run State Park in PA and basically wore it the entire week. https://i.imgur.com/NgNHfBX.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/tIbcC2s.jpeg http...

Love the pictures!! That bash looks really nice regardless, and I bet it’ll only get better with years and mileage! :TOH: can I ask what approximately the crown height is? Thanks for the kind words. :TOH: Feds are 5.5" open crown. The crown height on mine is 4.5", which obviously plays a ...

Indiana Jon

Here are a few shots of my Fed IV, bashed in the LC style. I have no experience shaping hats, so I paid a little more for their new(ish) shaping service and specified LC. In retrospect, I probably could've gotten it a little closer to screen accurate if I shaped in myself. They went a little crazy o...
